Exclusive details
Already, excited crowds have gathered to await the arrival of the celebrity guestlist and the bride and groom, Holly and Adam. Thankfully the sun is shining for their winter nuptials and it won't be long before the big day kicks off!
A source told HELLO! that arrivals are set to begin at Bath Abbey – Holly and Adam's spectacular and historic venue that can hold up to 1,200 guests – at 11:30am, where all the guests and the bride and groom will enter through the front door, which can be seen here.
"With just a couple of hours before guests were due to arrive this morning, the atmosphere at Bath Abbey was already palpable," the source told us.

"The 15ft tall carved wooden door entrance to the abbey was adorned with hundreds of white roses. And by 9:30am, the Abbey organist was already warming up their hands on the keyboard."

There is a cordoned-off area for guest arrivals and a pen for the world’s media. There is a real buzz about the place. I suspect it’ll be rammed by midday. Bath is a huge tourist pull anyway. Add the fact that it’s Christmas and a Saturday. It's going to be packed."

The beautiful colour scheme of the big day was clearly on display, reflected in Holly and Adam's flowers of choice - classically stylish white roses, which adorn every entrance to the historic venue.
The wedding party even went to the length of having a disabled parking bay blocked off at the rear door of the church.
The ‘reason’ given for the parking bay suspension was for a ‘wedding vehicle’, hinting that perhaps the bride would indeed make a dash into the rear door of the Abbey, as Eve Jobs did for her lavish Cotswolds wedding earlier this year.
The Olympic swimmer, 30, couldn't help his excitement, documenting a beautiful winter sunset as he woke up. "Morning of our wedding," he penned, alongside a white love heart emoji.
The photograph showed the sprawling Cotswolds countryside, a pool and a bright orange sunset, the perfect start to such a special day.
While fans are yet to hear from the blushing bride, one person who is more than ready for the big day is Holly's close family friend, Romeo Beckham, who shared a quick photo of himself donning a black bow tie.

Gordon's special words
Holly's doting dad Gordon Ramsay shared a special message for his daughter and husband-to-be in the early hours of Saturday morning. He wrote: "I'm truly so lucky being able to walk this beautiful bride down the aisle and gaining an incredible son-in-law @adam_peaty ! I love you so much @hollyramsayy and couldn’t be a prouder Dad xxx," alongside two photographs of him and his daughter. "
Pre-wedding drama
Just like any other wedding day, Holly and Adam's big day hasn't been exempt from its fair share of family drama. According to reports, Adam's mother, Caroline Peaty, who shares her son with her husband Mark, hasn't been invited to the big day.
Caroline was allegedly not invited to Holly's hen do, which caused Adam's aunt Louise to weigh in, sharing details and shared details on the ongoing drama.
Talking about Caroline, Adam's aunt Louise wrote, in part: "A woman who opened her home and heart to you. You decided, for whatever reason, not to invite her, your prospective mother-in-law, to your hen night, yet Adam invited his father-in-law, your dad, to his stag night."
She added, "I expected better of you and definitely of Adam. You have inflicted a hurt on my sister that will take a very long time to heal if ever."
The public statement prompted Adam to release a statement of his own in which he explained there are "two sides to every story, and asked that people refrain from commenting, as his sister Bethany, who appears to have a close relationship with Holly, including being a bridesmaid, has been "targeted."
